Nine out of ten people develop back or neck pain during their lifetime. Back pain can be debilitating, affecting all aspects of your life. The risk factors for developing back pain include a family history, prolonged standing or sitting, heavy repetitive work, obesity, poor general fitness and even smoking.
Our experienced physiotherapists will discuss with you how your back pain affects your lifestyle and examine the joints, muscles and nerves of your back in detail. They will identify factors affecting your back problem such as localized areas of stiffness in the spine, or specific muscle weaknesses that have developed over a period of time. Our team uses a number of methods to successfully treat back and neck pain and these include deep soft tissue massage, joint mobilization, manipulation, traction, electrotherapy and active exercise programs.
Early intervention of the patient is critical to a speedy recovery. Research has proven that people who seek physiotherapy early after an injury have shorter recovery periods than those who wait.
